Florida East Coast Railway Company; Public Hearing

[RS&I-AP-No. 1094]
    The Florida East Coast Railway Company (FEC) has petitioned the 
Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) seeking relief from the 
requirements of the Rules, Standards and Instructions, title 49 CFR, 
part 236, Sec. 236.566, to the extent that FEC be permitted to operate 
foreign line nonequipped locomotives, in automatic train control (ATC) 
territory, in accordance with Centralized Traffic Control System rules 
as defined by FEC Operating Rules and title 49 CFR, part 236, 
Sec. 236.567.
    This proceeding is identified as FRA Rules, Standards and 
Instructions Application (RS&I-AP) Number 1094.
    The FRA has issued a public notice seeking comments of interested 
parties and has conducted a field investigation in this matter. After 
examining the carrier's proposal and the available facts, the FRA has 
determined that a public hearing is necessary before a final decision 
is made on this proposal.
    Accordingly, a public hearing is hereby set for 10 a.m. on 
Thursday, April 27, 1995, in the Saint Johns County Auditorium, located 
at 420 Lewis Speedway, Saint Augustine, Florida. Interested parties are 
invited to present oral statements at the hearing.
    The hearing will be an informal one and will be conducted in 
accordance with Rule 25 of the FRA Rules of Practice (title 49 CFR part 
211.25), by a representative designated by the FRA.
    The hearing will be a nonadversary proceeding and, therefore, there 
will be no cross-examination of persons presenting statements. The FRA 
representative will make an opening statement outlining the scope of 
the hearing. After all initial statements have been completed, those 
persons wishing to make brief rebuttal statements will be given the 
opportunity to do so in the same order in which they made their initial 
statements. Additional procedures, if necessary for the conduct of the 
hearing, will be announced at the hearing.

Implementation.
